Fall 2013
Professor: Edward Scheinerman
Students praised this course for providing a sampling of the various disciplines inside the field of engineering. Students’ issues with the course focused on the various guest speakers the course had: some of the speakers were boring or tended to go into theoretical aspects of their field rather than speaking in an engaging manner and showcasing their field’s career opportunities. Students suggested adding more interactive aspects to the course by creating labs or in-class activities. Prospective students should know that the course is perfect for undecided engineering majors. While the course is lengthy, the workload was found to be “very light.”
